Slamming the ruling United Progressive Alliance's food management policies, CPI-M general secretary Prakash Karat on Saturday said the government was ensuring food for rats by allowing stocks to rot. “The FCI (Food Corporation of India) godowns have 60 million tonnes of foodgrain.
Stocks are overflowing and allowed to rot. What they are ensuring is food safety for rats," Karat said while inaugurating the extended central committee meeting of the party here. The CPI-M leader said the Left parties have been demanding food security for poor since long "but the government is relentless".
